On pc go to start - run- cmd. Like it says it is assumed you have fastboot working. If you don't know what that means do the rooting guides and get the Android SDK http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1623481

Heyy dude !! well since you said that you used to have a custom ics rom, surely you must already know how to root your phone, flash a custom recovery, and install the custom rom zip?
Because you reverted back to a stock rom, it wiped out ur custom recovery and installed the old stock one, so ur gnna have to flash a custom recovery again and use it to install a custom Jelly Bean rom, and ur good to go .. sorry if this doesnt answer ur question, or tht I have put forward an answer u already knew, let me know what u dnt understand.
---------- Post added at 09:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:07 PM ----------
Oh and just remembered back when I rooted my nexus s, I needed to install a program called PDANet, so tht it could provide my windows 7 with the correct adb drivers, in order for your computer to recognise your phone, when connected by USB and booted up on fastboot mode (make sure phone is fully off first, then hold volume up + power button)
Literally, just follow this guide, google has it all:
okay since im a new user, and not allowed to copy paste website links yet, type in google "root nexus s adb" and click the very top first link
BUT, dnt go beyond the step where it says to install superuser.zip in clockwork mod recovery (so you get to step 3 on part V. Root the Phone), instead just simply mount the phone as storage and transfer the custom rom zip u wanna flash, flash it using clockwork mod and thts all man.
Also, really stupid question, when u turn ur phone on, u see the google logo, and is there an unlocked grey padlock icon at the bottom, or just a fully black background with just the google logo by itself?

what he said.
Install a new recovery, boot to recovery, clean up (wipe and clear cache) Install new JB rom.
If you phone is in fact NOT rooted. type - 1 click root nexus s - into google
Rinse and repeat
Try this

I'm pretty sure you can just reflash the CWM Recovery, over the stock so root it, then download the official 4.1.1 and then you should have stock everything. Just type into google code google nexus s 4.1 and it should be the first link. If I am wrong about the flashing part, then can someone please correct me.
Hit The Thanks Button if this helped you.
u guys dont understand. I CANT ENTER RECOVERY MODE, it brings me a picture of a android with a ! mark over it And the phone doesnt boot , its just stuck on the jelly bean boot animation
i've got kinda problem when updating from 4.0.4 to 4.1.1 OTA.
in order to flash succeffuly the OTA package, you must have a stock ICS rom (i was running a custom rom based on IMM76D).
i had to flash a factory image of 4.0.4 from google.
if i don't mistake, there's the 4.1.1 factory image avaible (so you should flash that).
there's a guide here on xda on how to flash a factory image, just look for it.
hope this helps

fastboot reboot-bootloader

fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot -w update image-soju-imm76d.zip
this is an example with the ICS image, check the file names when you do it.

Hello Xda , I need some serious help.
I got sensation xe from my friend who wanted me to root it. It was updated on ICS with hboot version 1.27. First I tried various methods including revolutionary but I got to know that rev doesn't support 1.27 yet.
I got it unlocked from HTCDev and then I tried flashing CWM through different ways. In the process of looking into xda I found out a software called android flasher. I flashed CWM through it and it was finally flashed.
Now I downloaded ARHD with superwipe script. I did as suggested but after installation was done. There was nothing different than the stock rom except it showed android revolution hd in the software information.
Then I tried MIUI for sensation. I wiped all the data and cache and installed it.
Since then I am getting stuck at the miui screen and nothing is happening.
I then went back in to the recovery and wiped all data and cache again and rebooted the device but its still stuck in the image of miui. I formatted sd card and everything , I even partitioned it but nothings happening now. Its stuck on miui screen and I cant even mount my sd card. CWM is not mounting it
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME OUT. Its not my phone and I have to return it by tomorrow. Please help me out here. I am really a noob and I really need your help guys
Dowload official RUU and flash it - there is Sticky thread in Developement to answer all your questions
thanks for the quick reply but how am i going to flash it when i cant mount the sd card?
do the extra 1 step from this guide
also get rid of cwm for the time being and use 4EXT ..as long as you are SON...with HTC-dev unlocked bootloader
how do i get rid of cwm?

by flashing 4EXT recovery and to do that
its in the same guide ..step 2 and step 3 ( its required for SON devices)
Type in: adb devices (This will give you a list of devices attached to your computer, so if your phone is correctly attached it should show up.)

my phone isnt showing up. its connected to the pc in fastboot mode

all the adb commands in the guide are to make the phone go to fastboot ...but you are already at fastboot
so in the guide until the step "adb reboot-bootloader" skip them
then follow the rest of steps
What is the obsession with this stupid superwipe script? It is, always has been and always will be completely unnecessary.
I am already in fastboot then how can i flash 4ext?

Hey,
I recently got a hold of a Nexus S as a friend of mine gave me his phone as a gift to replace my Iphone 3g before he left out of the country. I love this phone, cant seem to put it down but now I want to upgrade the phone to ICS or JellyBean. I was hoping if someone can point me in a direction of how to upgrade. I cant seem to find any info on how to upgrade with a rooted 2.3.7. The phone I have is a Nexus S I9020A with 2.3.7. I am also including a screen shot of the phone settings. Please go easy on me as I just jumped in to the world of andriod and Im loving it! From the research i was getting from google i was wondering whether I should go to stock 2.3.6 and then get OTA for ICS, as I read how rooted phones do not get OTA. So I was hoping if someone could lead me to the best pathway to upgrade, if it is true that you only get OTA for unrooted phones I would prefer those upgrades. Thank you so much for your help!
first go here :http://www.randomphantasmagoria.com/firmware/nexus-s/i9020a/ download 2.3.6 GRK39F Full ROM...
2:download 4.0.4 IMM76D - IMM76D from GRK39F
3:download 4.1.1 JRO03E- JRO03E from IMM76D
Copy the 3 files to the storage card.
power off phone ..
press the power button and the volume up button ..now you see the recovery ..
wipe data/cache/dalvik
install zip from sdcard
first 2.3.6
reboot
second
imm76d
reboot
third
JRO03E
reboot
thats it !!
Or avoid update on update **** and flash stock JB from images instead : https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images
thank you for your help, i downloaded those three files and put it on the phone. once i get in to recovery I do not see wipe data/cache/dalvik. Everytime I select recovery it gives me a blank screen for one second and then takes me back to the same screen but on the top it says fastboot mode - no boot or recovery img

Make sure you have everything backed up. Try titanium backup.
Boot into recovery. (make sure you have a new version of recovery. If you want google - nexus s install cmw recovery
Clear/wipe everything in recovery, you will have the option to wipe phone and clear cache. You need to do this before changing roms or your bound to get errors.
So i guess I felt out of date and wanted to root my phone and use that cm10 rom or whatever everyone else is and i messed it up real bad. I keep getting this msg "this build is for development purposes only do not distribute outside of htc.." on the loading screen. At this point i just want to restore it back to normal , idc if i lose data , i just want my phone to WORK! I've flashed a clean recovery.img but whenever i try to access recovery , it brings me back to that screen with the red words. In addition , my phone is rogers so i can't even find a correct RUU to install. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I can get my phone to work again ? Any help is greatly welcomed !
P.S Wow i think it got worse , now it doesnt even loop again , it goes start into that menu bootloader, reboot , power down.. Omg i spent 5 hours looking into this. I NEED HELP!

..... It says that on every One X, it's HTC telling whoever turns the phone on that you used HTCDev.com
Make Sure you have TWRP (recovery) flashed/installed ... then in the bootloader go into recovery and flash cm10 ... and since you probably have the newer hboot 1.14 that means that you HAVE to flash the kernel (boot.img) via fastboot
Which is simple,
flash cm10
then reboot into the bootloader > fastboot
extract the boot.img from the cm10.zip
and fastboot flash boot boot.img
then your done reboot and enjoy.... (anything else read threw the forum, all your answers have been asked by somebody else already)
On rogers he won't have the 1.14 hboot, which means all he has to do is install the rom.
Try flashing the recovery again (TWRP ONLY!)
And then reinstall CM10

That might be your problem. CWM isn't supported for this phone and has been known to corrupt data.
Links for all the files you need are in a sticky in the Development forum. Here's the link for TWRP:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1677447
Once you've got that, you can wipe your phone inside TWRP (don't do it in bootloader--you'll have to reformat your sd card), and reflash CM10.
That link requires me to use that GOO manager? Confused lol i have TWRP on my computer but not sure the steps to use it ..

You can't use Goomanager if the phone doesn't boot. You need to push it over to your phone using adb, then you can flash it from recovery.

Read up, get adb working. Then you can install TWRP using adb.
So first i need to get adb working , then install TWRP to wipe my phone? To access that i flash TWRP and go into recovery right ?
EDIT: So .. i've downloaded that adb , and i got a bunch of files.. what do i do with this? I put them into my fastboot folder in my C drive.. Also i need to unlock my phone to do this right ? Cause i accidently relocked it .
EDIT: OKAY i rooted my phone , and got into TWRP , tried a factory rest under the wipe menu. http://i48.tinypic.com/13yklep.jpg It says fails.. what do i do ?
Go to mount usb storage (not sure which screen its on) while it's plugged into your computer
If windows says the card is corrupted, format it fat32, then copy over a rom onto your sd card

The Rogers HTC One X IS a HTC One XL. Rogers just branded it. The OneX has the Tegra 3 Quad Core Processor, the One XL has the S4 Dual Core Processor. Your phone is the same as the ATT Version. Trust me

No problem. Just be glad you didn't flash an international Rom. They can render your device completely unusable. Remember only flash things from this forum and enjoy

fastboot.exe is from the android sdk
same with adb
adb = android debug bridge
fastboot does the same thing, but from within fastboot
while your rom is bootlooping...
adb reboot bootloader - this will take you to hboot. it should say "FASTBOOT USB" in red
if it does..
fastboot flash boot boot.img (this is the kernel from the ROM) take the boot.img out of the rom and place it in the same folder as fastboot.exe so you can flash it with this command.. if it doesn't scroll down to "Fastboot" and hit the power button when its highlighted, then do the prior command
after it flashes
fastboot reboot recovery
this will take you into TWRP so you can flash your ROM
then wipe cache/dalvik-cache and reboot
Two separate threads for same problem??? One should be deleted.
1st amendment affords me the right to free speech. enjoy...

it makes perfect sense to me :cyclops:
Htc makes sexy phones..
SAMSUNG MAKES PHONES THAT ARE EASY TO FLASH.
God damn if i knew it would be such a pain in my ass to flash this thing i would have never bought it rooted
Guys ive been flashing phones mainly samsung s2 and s3 for a long time.. So i guess I just have alot of reading to do about HTC flashing.. This whole bootloader complication is driving me nuts.. I got it to restore a back up i had. so im at least good there.
Now only if I can get to a simple stock ROM without bricking again. yes my head exploded reading those things and still doesnt make sense, but hey i will keep an open mind to learn more.
Ok. so this phone is running on CM10 evita 4.1.2 which i cannot stand.
I just want a clean/debloated or simple stock ROM. Better yet Ill take stock.
I was directed to a directory of a bunch of ROMs that were stock but dont know which one to choose or how to flash a stock ROM.
I have the ATT version of the ONE x.
Some help would be appreciated, in return I would learn more about this phone and hopefully go on to make themes and even try making a ROM for you guys once I get more knowledge.

Hi!I have a problem with my huawei vision.I wanted to install android 4.2.1 jelly bean from another phone and now my phone start and stuck at huawei logo....PC dont recognized him......No recovery No fastboot No nothing.....What should i do?:|
Someone help me?please?
You should never install ROMs or flash kernels which are made for another phone to your own phone. Each ROM is made specificaly for one device making it hardly possible to work properly on others.
If you have an unlocked bootloader then you could simply flash a kernel with CWM recovery and flash another supported ROM.
If you have a locked bootloader (also if you don't know what that is, then this is probably what you have) and if you haven't flashed any custom kernels (if you don't know what those are then you probably haven't) then your only hope is to find and flash the stock ROM back on it.
EDIT: If you're phone is the Huawei U8850 aka Vision then this is a stock ROM you can use:
https://mega.co.nz/#!hxIEDTrZ!ejEk1AC5f6S4aJ0iLx2rIkB0gMJIUMY5-_8iPDIZcfI
Probaly i have locked bootloader ....but how i unlock bootloader because my pc don recognized my phone nothing....
Download the U8850 Upgrade package from here. Unpack it and install SUT L3 and the USB drivers from the unpacked files. With SUT L3 you will flash this firmware which will enable CWM recovery on your device which you can access by pressing Vol- and Power button at the same time when you turn your phone on (you don't have to enter it after flashing this firmware I gave you because it should work fine).
First boot will take a while, but if it takes more than aprox. 15 minutes than something's wrong again.
EDIT: If everything goes fine and you want an ICS ROM than you can hop to this thread/tutorial. BUT DO THIS ONLY IF AND AFTER YOU HAVE SUCCESSFULLY INSTALLED AND BOOTED THE ABOVE FIRMWARE!
Dont work....Pc dont recognized him......
If SUT L3 is not detecting your phone when you connect it, neither turned off nor turned on, then I'm afraid you just bricked your phone.
Thank you! I finish problem:*!
Now ...i have a problem...when i want to install firmware .....error : task 2 of 2 ,download image fail error=device_not_configure
Glad to hear that! Just remember to never use ROMs which are not made specifically for your device!

But ....with error?.....i cant install android:|.....error appear in sut l3..
Did you install the required USB drivers from the upgrade tools I gave you?

Yes i install.....now boot recovery .....but i cant select anything..
Use the volume hard keys.

i use.....but when i click on "install zip from sdcard" nothing
How?
U must first transfer a ROM in zip format to your SD card and then select it via recovery.
But I lost you there a little. Was the recovery there before or did you successfully install the firmware via SUT L3? Because if you have, than you should be able to boot the Gingerbread ROM from the firmware.

Hi CCVader,
I've got a similar problem with my Huawei Vision that I bought/bricked yesterday. I managed to download an image file to my phone that was rooted and allowed me to boot to cwm. From the CWM Recovery screen I installed jellybean.zip, but after restart the phone hangs on the red Huawei screen. Every minute or so the screen goes black then comes right back to the red logo. Is this the 'first boot' you are describing above? Shall I just leave it doing this for 15 mins?
Thanks.
James.

You can't just flash ROMs without the appropriate kernel istalled. U8850 comes with Gingerbread and with the GB kernel.
Flash this.

OK, I'll give that a go when I get home. The firmware you've linked me to - is this GB?
One thing that concerns me - the Software Update Tool detects my phone if I attach it while it is on CWM, but if I try to install the original image it keeps failing. Equally, trying to install a tested nb0 file from the stock recovery tool also now fails.
The little bit of home I have is that I can still get to CWM Recovery - as long as I can do this, does that mean there is a chance I can unbrick my phone?
Many thanks for the quick response.
